Buffalo Chicken Tacos

Why are tacos so good? And there are so many different kinds that you can make. I will normally make tacos a couple a times a months. They are easy and a favorite in our house.

I am always looking for new taco ideas, and I came across this recipe for Buffalo Chicken Tacos a couple days ago. I haven't made them yet, but I am hoping to in the next week or so.


Buffalo Chicken Tacos

Ingredients

1lb chicken breasts, skinless, boneless, cut into 1 inch pieces
1/3 cup flour
3 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/3 cup buffalo wing sauce 
1 tablespoon olive oil
10 6-inch yellow corn tortillas


Toppings:
Shredded butter Lettuce
Diced onions mixed with cilantro
Avocado slices
Ranch dressing
Green onions, sliced thinly

Directions:

Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

In a large bowl, combine cornstarch, flour, cayenne, and garlic powder. Season the chicken pieces with pepper, then dredge in the flour mixture.

Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the Dutch oven and once it gets hot, add chicken and cook on both sides – about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Once the chicken is done, set it aside in a bowl and toss with ⅓  cup buffalo wing sauce.

Assemble 10 tacos, dividing the toppings evenly among each taco.
